Description
Compiling the source code from this repository we get a lot of warnings like:
../I2util/errlog.h:105:33: warning: macro "__DATE__" might prevent reproducible builds [-Wdate-time]
#define I2ErrLog I2ErrLocation_(__FILE__, __DATE__, __LINE__); \
We could either just remove the usage of the __DATE__ macro or, better, replace it with the i2util version number. See the function definition.

Research direction
Start at the I2ErrLog macro in I2util/errlog.h around line 105, then read the function definition in I2util/ErrLog.c around line 607. Choose between removing DATE and replacing it with the i2util version number, then compile the source and confirm the reproducible-build warning is gone.
